Anna Wintour is living the American dream of buying all the houses in your vicinity to prevent yourself from having undesirable neighbors. Or was that only the dream of the racist, anti-semitic Upson family in Auntie Mame?Â I can’t remember. More »

If you thought the Met Costume Institute’s upcoming exhibit Punk: Chaos To CoutureÂ was going to be some sort of nudity filled free-for-all, think again: the Vampyre Anna Wintour is never sleeping, always watching, to make sure it doesn’t get too crazy. More »

In search of some nice, cool shade to sit in and read a book, and perhaps eat a sandwich? Look no further than Anna Wintour‘s latest (alleged) diss on Kim Kardashian, which contains enough shade for the entire African continent and some of South America, too. More »

Anna Wintour has already gone on the record saying there’s zero chance she’d ever leave her job at VogueÂ to be an ambassador to her native UK or France, but that hasn’t stopped certain members of the press from razzing the Obama administration about its rumored shortlisting of her for such a position.

As you may know, there’s been some talk floating around that Anna Wintour may be up for a US ambassadorship, either to France or to her native UK. Many people think she’sÂ under qualifiedÂ for the job because running a fashion magazine is a stupid girl job, while Anna herself has said via her reps that she’s “very happy” at Vogue.

The latest issue of American Vogue gives us a sneak peek into Vogue creative directorÂ Grace Coddington‘s memoir, and from what I’ve read of it so far, it’s absolutely fascinating.

It also contains many surprising facts. Here are six of them (all taken from the excerpt), plus the great vintage photos from Grace’s life that VogueÂ included with it. If the rest of the book is as good as this part, I’m going to burn through it in a week. More »
